The field was heavy with local talent, many from North Creek, Chestertown and Minerva. Serena May is the only four-year veteran of the contest’s judging panel. The other two judges are pulled from the crowd and given the chance to decide the fate of the Chiachinned contestants.

“It’s all about style,” said May. Not simply style, she clarified, but swagger. The contestants need to work the crowd for maximum points.

NEWCOMB — After early, vague legal concerns were voiced by the state Department of Environmental Conservation about the rail to Tahawus, the organization has come out in support of the plan to re-open the freight line to the old ilmenite mine.

The DEC wrote a joint letter with the state's Department of Transportation to the federal Surface Transportation Board March 15 urging approval of common carrier status for the Saratoga-North Creek Railway. It was filed Monday, March 19.

After an initial trickle of letters opposing the line or questioning its legality, there was a flood of letters submitted in support from chambers of commerce, town halls and individuals around the region. The DEC/DOT letter points to the frequently-cited environmental and highway

JCS students prepare for ‘Beauty and the Beast’

By Sarah Morris & Shiloh Wood newsenterprise@denpubs.com

(Johnsburg Central School sophomores Sarah Morris and Shiloh Wood wrote this news story under the tutelage of English teacher Katy Odell.)

NORTH CREEK — Students and teachers at Johnsburg Central School are in the final stages of preparing for this year ’s musical, “Beauty and the Beast,” to be performed at 7 p.m. Friday, March 30 and 7 p.m. Saturday, March 31 in the school auditorium.

“We have quite a way to go,” said musical director Mary Leach. “We just started using sets and every component that we add requires more time.”

Leach said she chose “Beauty” for this year ’s show because “the music is singable. Everyone is familiar with the tunes. Also, the play calls for a big cast. There were many parts, so many people could have a chance to have a principle part.”

Starring in the play as the modest and beautiful Belle is senior Moriah Amadeo, along with senior Liam Harrison as the vicious but loving Beast. Dustin Weller, a senior, is playing Gaston, the hot-headed brute, along with junior Jon Ordway as LeFou, Gaston’s clumsy sidekick. Junior Chris Guy

Minerva Central to present ‘Aladdin Jr.’ MINERVA— Ever wonder what happened to that fine group of characters Disney Studios brought to the big screen about two decades ago?

Here’s a short list: Jasmine, Abu, Aladdin, Iago, Jafar, and of course, the Genie.

They’re back!

The Minerva Central School Drama Club presents Disney’s “Aladdin Jr.” at the

school on Saturday, March 24 at 7 p.m. and again on Sunday, March 25 at 3 p.m.

Directed by MCS Music Director Sabrina LaPointe, this musical with its large student cast and dedicated group of backstage and production folks offers 14 songs, great choreography, fine acting, and lots of energy. Tickets are $5 for adults, $3 for students/seniors, and $10 for a family.

is cast as Maurice, Belle’s caring, supportive father. Ethan Cooper, also a junior, is Lumiere, the laid-back candlestick.

Alistair McKee, a senior, will portray Cogsworth, the uptight clock.

Other primary parts include Mikayla Glode as Mrs. Potts, the sweet teapot, and Montana Berg as Chip, her son, the cute teacup. Alongside Leach throughout the rehearsals is student director Courtney Allard.

Asked about playing the lead role of the Beast, Harrison said that “it’s different. [Playing the beast ] is something I wanted to do because it’s something not everyone gets to try.

It’s nice to be on stage.

“It was hard to memorize the lines and songs at first, but once you run through it a couple of times, it gets easier. So far, I think it’s going well. We have had a lot of support from the students and we’ve had a lot of participation and people are working together really well.”

Ashlee Hitchcock, a senior playing an extra, spoke for everyone when she said, “I think we’re all involved enough; we all get a spotlight.”

“It’s been a great experience working with everyone and we look forward to a great play,” Leach added.

Tickets for the Johnsburg Central School production of “Beauty and the Beast” are $6 for adults and $4 for students and senior citizen and may be purchased at the door.

Minerva Easter Egg Hunt set for April 1

By Andy Flynn

andy@denpubs.com OLMSTEDVILLE — Organizers of the annual Easter Egg Hunt at the Minerva Central School are busy preparing for this year ’s event, which is scheduled for Sunday, April 1.

Steve and Diane Colletti, owners of It’s About Thyme Farm in Olmstedville, will be hosting their fourth annual Easter Egg Hunt starting at 1 p.m. in the field behind the school. They hope to get as many children up to 12 years old participating in the hunting exercise, and they need to start as promptly as possible because the participants are always anxious.

“The kids really want to get in there (and search for the eggs),” Diane said.

The kids don’t hunt for pastel-colored, hard-boiled chicken eggs; rather, they will be looking for a variety of hollow, plastic eggs filled with an assortment of candy.

More than 1,000 of these eggs, plus other

treats, will be scattered throughout the field.

There will be goodies for the adults as well, including door prizes and giveaways.

Kids from 1 to 100 can take a guess at the Jelly Bean Jar, guessing how many jelly beans are in a glass container.

In 2011, almost 60 children attended the Easter Egg Hunt in Minerva, and they traveled from all over the region.

For more information, contact the Collettis at the It’s About Thyme Farm in Olmstedville 251-5297 or visit online at www.itsaboutthyme.com.

ILCS adopts budget North Creek Fire Co. plans events

By Bill Quinlivan

newsenterprise@denpubs.com INDIAN LAKE — Indian Lake School Board members Tuesday, March 20 voted unanimously to adopt a 20122013 budget totaling $5,822,831.

The budget represents a $39,515 — 0.68 percent — increase over the 2011-2012 budget, and it includes a 2.9 percent tax levy increase.

Board President Jon Vorhees and Vice President David Harrington commended all involved in the budget process for the hard work and cooperation evident in bringing the budget in line with the state’s so-called “2 percent tax cap.” There has been much written about the complexity of the formula to arrive at the actual cap for each individual district and it is estimated that the tax cap formula — which includes exemptions — could have allowed an ILCSD budget to increase large enough to have resulted in a 3.9 percent increase in the tax levy.

There was discussion among the board members about the need to explain the budget increase in the face of the misunderstanding in the community regarding the intricacies of the cap formula.

Harrington noted that many good articles have been written that explained these intricacies and helped members of the community better understand the true nature and application of the cap.

With this board adoption, the budget will be sent to the voters, who last year approved a $5.78 million 20112012 budget representing a decrease of 0.34 percent from the previous year ’s budget.

Other business In covering other subjects, Principal David Snide told board members that ILCS has been awarded the status of

being an Essential Elements Schools to Watch by the New York State Education Department. There are only 18 schools so awarded this status in the state of New York.

Among, other business, the board reviewed and approved bids for the upcoming construction project. Additional discussion surrounded the use of a smaller generator available from the Water Plant project as a means of garnering some savings in the project. The board also emphasized the importance of moving forward given the timing needed for the project’s physical commencement and completion.

andy@denpubs.com NORTH CREEK — A ceremony honoring a local 9-year-old this weekend will be among the several events planned at the North Creek Volunteer Fire Company this spring.

Fire Company Chief Steve Studnicky said that Matthew Richards, 9, of North Creek, will be given a commendation at noon Saturday, March 24 at the firehouse for his assistance in November 2011, when he called 911 to help his grandfather, Brian Richards Sr., a longtime member of the fire company who died shortly afterward.

“We have to let the kids know of the important job Matthew did,” Studnicky said.

Richards, his family, firefighters, and town and county representatives are

expected to be in attendance.

North Creek Fire Company officials will also be starting a new group of Explorers, which is a coeducational affiliate of Boy Scouts that engages teens age 12-20 in fire or police departments.

Fire officials failed to launch a post last year, but there has been renewed interest, according to Studnicky. The firehouse will host an open house pizza party/movie night Friday, April 20 for teens interested in learning more about the Explorers.

With an aging group of firefighters, “We really have to get renewed interest in the fire department,” Studnicky said.

That same weekend, the firehouse will be hosting its annual Recruit New York open house from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., Saturday and Sunday, April 21-22. Recruit New York is a program designed by the Firemen’s Association of the

State of New York to attract new members to fire departments throughout the state. The North Creek Fire Company will have refreshments and equipment demonstrations throughout the weekend.

Studnicky said members recently changed the name of the fire company’s “Auxiliary” to “Support Team” to attract both men and women to this important volunteer corps, which supports the firefighters in a number of ways, from fixing and delivering food during major fires to helping with fundraising. In many places, an auxiliary consists of only women.

This is a busy spring for the North Creek Fire Company, but a good kind of busy, as opposed to last year ’s record-breaking rain events.

“Thankfully, it’s busier for a different reason other than ice jams and flooding,” Studnicky said.

News Enterprise Editorial

Viewpoint

Political squabbling hurts average Americans ongressman Bill Owens, speaking recently in his hometown of Plattsburgh, said ideology prevents progress in Washington, D.C. The Republicans think they are right. The Democrats believe they are right. They each believe the other party is wrong, and that appears to be it ... period.

In fact, it seems as though it is more important to be right and to further certain ideological stances than to embrace reform and progress, especially if it comes from the wrong side of the aisle.

This refusal to work together is actually nothing new in politics, though considering the state of the nation, it is becoming increasingly frustrating and pathetic.

Consider the number of uninsured in the United States.

President Obama started out fighting for universal health care before settling for something much less and more problematic.

Now one does not have to agree with the president's plight to admit that the current state of health care in the country is a mess. Beyond the number of uninsured, those who have insurance available to them often cannot afford it, and while medicaid is available to the poor, finding doctors who accept it is a near impossible task, not to mention the difficulties that arise pertaining to what will and will not be covered.

Then there is public education.

The task of educating children has been growing increasingly more difficult over the past few years as aid shrinks and costs soar. Plus, taxpayers have been pushed to their limits, so schools have nowhere to turn to for revenue.

As a result, school districts throughout the North Country

C

and across the nation have been eliminating jobs and making painful cuts to programs, if not axing them altogether. In fact, many districts have done away with athletics, arts, extra-curriculars, programs for at-risk students and advanced classes for gifted students.

And this mess is merely in its infancy, because next year and the year after will likely be worse.

New York lawmakers claim they are becoming a model for the rest of the nation due to their bipartisan efforts ever since Gov. Andrew Cuomo took office.

Frankly, it's too early to tell, especially when this latest dose of so-called pension reform inspired equal cries of condemnation and celebration in a deal that appears to have partly been about bolstering legislators’ chances at re-election in the way of redistricting.

But what can be certain is that, given the current state of the nation in the wake of the Great Recession, the public cannot afford for lawmaker squabbling, egos and ideology to get in the way of much needed relief.

It is not a matter of who is right or wrong. It is a matter of what is right, for everyone.

Note: Rep. Bill Owens, D-Plattsburgh, will be running this fall for the newly established 21st Congressional District, which includes all of Warren, Hamilton and Essex counties. He currently represents the 23rd District.

Indian Lake Chamber News

The River Starts Here

By George DeChant

I

stepped out of the Indian Lake Theater, to the night air of March. I was smiling.

The movie, "The Artist," is a wonderful movie with an old time styled/silent images of the past that mixed a lot of modern technology into a thing of beauty. As I walked home, I realized the same could be said about the Town of Indian Lake.

The Indian Lake Theater is a good example of that. You know — when you are in that theater — the ambiance has a lot to do with history, yet at the same time the sound system and some of the projectors are modern, all

Mrs. Mosher's JCS second grade: “I would leave a note on my desk that says, 'I am in the graveyard, so don't bother me.'”

Ethan Dunbar “I would go to sleep in my locker.”

Alexander Thomas “I would go do my homework in the middle of the night.”

Drue DeGroat Mrs. Sherwood's JCS second grade: “I would go outside an play tag with my brother. I would go right behind him and he would feel a touch on him, so he would be 'It.' My brother would not find me and would give up. So it would be my turn again.

I would be right next to him, so I would tag him.”

Madison Buck “If I were invisible for one day, I would go to the Great Escape. I would get free rides and free cotton candy.”

Sam Porter Mrs. Watson's JCS third grade: “I would sneak away to Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. I could go to Alligator Adventure and creep all the other people out! I

updated in the last few years.

The theater is a fine mix of what makes Indian Lake a great town. Like so many things in town you have a combination of the glory of the past and the technology of today.

It is symbolic of how the town is focused on the future, without forgetting where we came from.

The Theater has been a great friend in the community. In fact, in a couple weeks there will be a free private screening of "Hugo" for students of Indian Lake Central School and Newcomb Central School who read 1,000 pages for the March Reading Challenge.

Yet another example of a community working to improve is the three-part series of business seminars coming to Indian Lake.

All three seminars are examples of the town pulling together on a path to tomorrow and will be sponsored by the Indian Lake Chamber of Commerce, Indian Lake Community Planning Committee and Indian Lake Central School.

The first one, Small Business Basics, takes place Tuesday,

Letter to the Editor Congrats to students To the News Enterprise: Congratulations to all the Indian Lake Central School Skills USA students who participated in the March 14 Area III Regional Leadership and Skills Championships at Schenectady County Community College and the 109th Air National Guard Base.

Winners from our school were Julius Dunbar, first place, Extemporaneous Speaking; and Sebastian Pike, first place, Small Engine Repair.

would also go to Ripley's Aquarium and swim with the sharks.”

Sierra Dunkley “I would scare my sister and say, 'Tori, this is your conscience. Beware! You are going to find a cool alien. So how is your day going?'

'Good.'

Phoebe Glover “I would scare people. I would haunt Ghost Hunters and Paranormal State. I would go through the Earth.”

Dominic Brouthers “I would play hide-and-seek and no one can find me. When mom comes and gets me in my bed, she won't find me. When I go to school, you would just see clothes walking.”

Mason Degroat “I would go rob a video game store and go hunt ghosts. I would go swim with a shark and scare little kids that believe in ghosts. I would get candy from little kids.”

Ethan Michael Gereau “I would walk through walls. I would scare people and walk right through people.

If I played hide-and-go-seek, they would never find me.”

April 24, from 6 to 8 p.m. Karen Stehlin, Regional Director, North Country Small Business Development Center, SUNY Plattsburgh, will lead attendees in an understanding of the rewards, opportunities and challenges of being a business owner. This is perfect for anyone — regardless of where you live — that has an idea to add to the economy of our area. Contact the chamber to reserve your spot. (indianlakechamber@frontiernet.net or 518/648-5112).

Think of Small Business Basics as a seminar to answer any questions you may have about starting a business. Now anyone who has ever thought of being an enterprising entrepreneur can get the answers. You might not be Steve Jobs, but you can create your own career.

The follow up seminar will be My Small Business 101. This two-session class (May 12 and 19) will be presented by Marc Compeau, Entrepreneurship Center, Clarkson University.

Participants will gain practical knowledge and skills that can be immediately applied to their

Local BOCES students win skills competition HUDSON FALLS — Students from northern Warren County enrolled in programs of the Washington-Saratoga-Warren-Hamilton-Essex BOCES won a number of top awards in the recent SkillsUSA competition.

The top two winners of the local competitions moved onto the regional SkillsUSA competition held at Schenectady County Community College.

The SkillsUSA competition series is held for high school students studying for careers in trade, technical and skilled services jobs in such fields as health care,

businesses. They’ll also learn how to define longer-term goals, focus on growth in key areas and learn useful information, tools and resources.

Registration for My Small Business 101 is $60 per person.

Pre-registration is essential.

Please register no later than May 4, by calling Clarkson University at (315) 268-3995.

The first two seminars will get the prospective business owner started, but very few people can finance an enterprise with their good looks. While it is a common belief that people who live in the hamlets of Indian Lake are 2.7 percent more attractive than average — you still need some greenbacks to get started. The chamber is already on that with: Show Me the Money! The workshop is structured to introduce entrepreneurs and small business owners to available financial assistance for their business endeavors.

Representatives from additional financial organizations will be present to council attendees on where funding sources may be found and the process necessary to get them.

information technology, mechanical and carpentry trades and culinary arts.

SkillsUSA, a national nonprofit organization, is devoted to rewarding students for excellence, and involving industry in evaluating student performance — and keeping career training relevant to employers’ needs.

Top winners from northern Warren County in the initial competition included: • Jonathan Sears of Johnsburg, second place, Automotive Technology; • Aaron Ferguson of Johnsburg and Kayla Gignac of Lake George, first place, Team Crime Scene Investigation/Criminal Justice; • Tom Blake of North Creek, third place, Welding/adult division; • and Tyler Warrington of Johnsburg, second place, Welding.

M

arch is here — the month when we celebrate St. Patrick’s Day — the month when leprechauns do their thing. I know that some of the good leprechauns are gainfully employed as bakers in the Keebler Kitchens.

March is also when the Girl Scout Cookies are delivered. I have a theory that some of the more mischievous leprechauns have defected to the GSA. My logic here is that some of those cookies are so good they are positively addictive.

I must admit to having a pre-existing penchant for snacks. I’m the one who used to inhale a whole stack of Ritz crackers, washed down with milk. I couldn’t stop until they were all gone. But I’ve licked that problem by staying out of the cracker aisle at the GU. Girl Scout Cookies are a different matter. Who can turn away a sweet Scout who raps on the door selling her wares? Then there are the younger sisters, the Brownies, and the even younger Daisies. I’m just a girl who can’t say “NO.” So I order several boxes with the intention of mailing them to my grown children. When they are delivered I pop them straight into the freezer. But, you know, those thin mints taste quite good frozen.

My personal favorites are the Samoas which look a lot like Keebler cookies but taste ever so much better.

It’s a conspiracy. Those mischievous leprechauns are slipping something into the batter that makes the end product impossible to resist. The only saving grace is they come in small packages.

W

ow! Spring has arrived but think we have had springlike weather for a long time.

What does this mean about April? Will we get spring showers or snowstorms?

Bakers Mills sure did have a bad storm on Monday with lots of thunder and lightning and hail. More work for the road crews. Fixing washouts.

I was so surprised when I picked up my mail one day last week and found a note from someone I met in Germany 43 years ago. I found her old address and took a chance. WOW! Alonzo and Johnny Lee had played together that many years ago.

Always good to find ages ago friends.

Samantha Cleveland and daughter, Sierra enjoyed going to hear Joel Olsten on Friday night. The news said it was the biggest crowd they had ever had.

Dale Warrington is home from Albany Med. Hospital and gaining each day.

I took my Dad, Earl Allen, to Edinburg on Thursday to visit Guy and Dorothy Edwards. Such a great visit but sad to hear more about the death of Jay Edwards. The maple syrup isn't doing that good but they had made about 800 gallons thus far. Dad and I ate at the FourCorner Diner before heading home.

Hope you had a great St. Paddy's day with corned beef and cabbage. A tradition we carry from Ireland.

Happy Birthday to: Michael Allen, Debby Leigh, Sierra Dunkley, Ginny Dalaba, TJ Millingon, Diane Cleveland, Ashley Morse, Scott Kramar, Derrick Hobbs, Avis Hitchcock, Pat Porter.

Hester's History (cont.)

It was a large three story house with a good cellar underneath having double walls; and some windows in the cellar walls. A deep well was in the corner of the cellar; which a hand pump was used for several years to bring the water into the kitchen. There was a spacious attic where we slept considerably as the upstairs was used for church. Many wooden seats had been made for the church services.

There was a good sized kitchen and dining room and a parlor, a bedroom and a hall on the first floor. One winter a lady minister and her two daughters and their children lived in the living room and my father and my mother, sisters and I lived n the cellar ( or basement). There was the lady minister and her daughter, Alice Shaw with three children. The husband was not there, only part time. The minister, Addie L. Ovitt lived with Alice and the three children. One was a baby. Sometimes Newton Ovitt, the husband of Addie L. Ovitt, was there and sometimes he was else where. The deaf and dumb Effie was married to Warren Palmer and they had 4 children. They lived in one part of the house. Today I correspond with the oldest girl, the daughter of Effie and Warren, named Ruth Palmer Rozell Sr.

Indian Lake Central School a state, national School to Watch INDIAN LAKE — Indian Lake Central School District was one of 18 schools in New York State designated as an EssentialElements Schools to Watch from the New York State Department of Education and the Essential Elements School to Watch leadership team.

Indian Lake School Superintendent Mark Brand said, “Not only are we a school to watch, Indian Lake is the first prekindergarten-12, single building, small rural school district to ever achieve this prestigious recognition. Our staff has worked diligently with the intention of reaching this goal.”

This designation was given to Indian Lake for its intellectual, academic, personal and social development of middle-level school students.

Indian Lake has developed a model educational program in New York State that is consistent with the Regents Policy Statement on Middle Level Education, the Essential Elements of a Standards Focused Middle Level School, and the National Forum’s Schools to Watch criteria. From their successful endeavors, Indian Lake Central School has been recognized as a State and National School to Watch.

Indian Lake School will be honored at the National Schools to Watch Conference in Washington, D.C. in June, and recognized at the New York State Middle Schools Conference in the fall.

Donegal beard from page 1 championship Donegal.

Todd Utley also didn’t cultivate a bumper crop this winter. He came out for his second year, and though his beard wasn’t as impressive as some of the competition, Utley said it’s the good-time atmosphere that gets him involved.

“Just ’cause I can’t grow it doesn’t mean I can’t show it,” he said.

J.K. Camp was enjoying a brew on the patio next to Utley. He’s come every year, and called himself the Original Donegal. He placed second in the first year of competition.

Camp looked at a burly, black-bearded man next to him and marveled, “It’s like a bear parked on his face.”

The bear-faced fellow didn’t want to disclose his real name, confiding that he wasn’t supposed to be at the celebration.

He decided to compete as Mantis Toboggan, though he was despondent on his chances. He placed second the last two years running despite his wiry, Wooly-Willy beard.

This year, he won the contest.

“I refuse to wear a costume, that’s why,” said Toboggan. “It’s the man that makes the beard, not the costume.”

The entrants lined up just outside the barroom, and paraded into the building one by one while the announcers emceeing the event were drowned out by the exuberant onlookers.

Strutting into the bar from the patio, Dan Pratt, who finished in second place, got loud cheers from the ladies in the audience. The bear-faced Toboggan’s fans were more deep-throated, as the fellows in the audience cheered on the manly beard.

In a quieter costume than Meehan’s leprechaun, Jack Leggett placed third, taking the victory for style. He said he scavenged much of his apparel from the thrift shop at the town dump.

Judge Lindsey Duval said it was really tough to pick out a victor, but fullness was the deciding factor this year.

Second at third places earned some novelty shirts and gift cards for the restaurants, and the best-bearded Toboggan took home the coveted bottle of Jameson.

“Everybody saw through the gimmick,” said Toboggan, who displayed his Irish trophy proudly, “and saw the beard for what it was.”

Minerva students compete in Odyssey of the Mind

By Mike Corey

newsenterprise@denpubs.com MINERVA — There were feet, indeed, and a Hamlet-like character who was actually a podiatrist with a conscience and a nosy & nagging mother. There was a sleep-deprived factory owner, a friendless cupcake-bearer, and a woman who believed herself to be a chicken. Where were these folks to be found and what the heck were they doing?

On March 10, these interesting characters (who also double as students at Minerva Central School) could be found at Hudson Falls High School, often roaming the hallways and settling within classrooms, the auditorium, cafeteria, and gymnasium, along with hundreds of other no less puzzling folks.

The event was the annual regional Odyssey of the Mind competition, coordinated by the Washington-Saratoga-Warren-Hamilton-Essex BOCES. Odyssey of the Mind is a creative problem-solving competition for students from kindergarten through elementary, middle school, high school and college-age levels. Teams of students (with no more than seven on a team) decide on a problem to solve, create a solution, and then present this solution at a judged competition after months of preparation.

Students primarily have fun while learning problem-solving techniques that are creative and very imaginative. They identify challenges and then think creatively to solve those problems, skills that will stay with them.

Coached by Sue Montgomery Corey, a veteran of Odyssey of the Mind competitions, 11 students made the trip via MCS school bus, ably driven by Bev West. Montgomery Corey’s Division Two team was composed of six kids, including Shane Bush-Lancaster, Kaleb Davie, Meghan Dunkley, Blake Piper, Ryan Tucker, and Amber Vanderwarker. Their problem, called “Odyssey Angels,” involved the travel of students (“angels”) through a created community where they change negative situations into positives ones, helping

needy individuals along the way while bailing out the community. The Division Three team (Shasti Conlon, Toni Dunbar, Aleynah Gardinier, Dustin Griffin, and Serena Ruzbacki) tackled the “To Be or Not to Be” problem. Here, an original Hamlet character faces a team-created conundrum, taking the easy way out and discovering that it was the wrong choice; as part of the solution, musical theatre comes into play.

It was a great day in Hudson Falls. Even though the Minerva students will not be making the trip to Binghamton for the NYS finals competition (neither team came in first in their respective divisions), it was a great experience for all.

Organizers thanked the custodial staff of Minerva Central School and MCS Art teacher Janelle Meyer, who kindly offered up the art room for use by the two teams as they created all their costumes and props, plus parents, guardians, and friends who provided support to these students.

maintenance benefits of opening the tracks to freight customers.

The train would take heavy trucks off the roads in a sparsely populated region where road maintenance is expensive and frequent. It would also replace several diesel truck engines with one train engine, reducing noise, pollution and dust.

The DEC has plans to create a community-connecting snowmobile trail, and Iowa Pacific has promised to help make that a reality. The trains won't run along the rail line in the winter, so the rail company will make the bed available to white-season off-roaders.

Longer term, Iowa Pacific won't stand in the way of turning the rail bed into a pedestrian trail once its business there is done.

U.S. Sen. Kristen Gillibrand also supported the rail line, citing the same reasons of job creation, highway traffic reduction and environmental impact.

Alongside Gillibrand's letter, Iowa Pacific Attorney John Heffner wrote that the project is overwhelmingly supported by local organizations and officials. Now that the DEC is on board, Protect the Adirondacks! is the only major protestor of the project, he wrote.

The Surface Transportation Board, which regulates rail use, denied an exemption request by Iowa Pacific to file an application for common carrier status along the line.

That status would allow the railroad to carry freight for companies besides NL Industries, the owner of the Tahawus mine, and make the rail refurbishment investment more appealing.

Some of the major proposals in the draft UMP include:

Fisheries •Reduce the distribution of nonnative and native‐but‐widely‐introduced fish species, and increase the abundance of the depressed native brook trout. This will include reclaiming Marion Pond.

•Restore a native fish community in Marion Pond through reclamation.

•Manage one pond (Marion) as an Adirondack brook trout pond, and one pond (Bailey) as a Coldwater pond.

•Manage two ponds (Big and North) as Warmwater ponds.

•And assess North Pond as a potential reclamation candidate to restore a native fish community there.

Group size •Adopt regulations to limit the maximum number of overnight users to groups of eight. This will be implemented over a two-year period.

•Adopt regulations to limit the size of day use groups to a maximum of 15 persons per party. This will be implemented over a two-year period.

Campsites There are no designated primitive campsites located in this unit. There are numerous fire rings: three on North Pond and one each on Bailey Pond, Big Marsh, Tyrrell Marsh, Big Pond, Marion Pond and one in Hoffman Notch located mostly on the larger bodies of water where people have camped.

•Due to the absence of any designated tent sites in the unit, two tent sites will be designated at Big Pond.

•Designate and develop a tent site at Bailey Pond with accessibility in mind. Level / hardened site with accessible fire ring and accessible Privy.

•Construct a lean‐to in the vicinity of Platt Brook along the 4‐mile new trail segment.

•Designate one campsite on North Pond •Install accessible box privy at all designated tent sites and lean‐to.

Trailheads The HNWA is served by six public entry points, five of which are considered developed, as a parking area is available at that location. One additional trailhead / parking area is planned for the northwest portion of the unit along the Blue Ridge Rd. •Replace privy at Lock Muller Trailhead with accessible privy.

•Increase the size of the Big Pond Trailhead parking by one to two vehicle spaces.

•Construct a three- to four-car parking lot in existing driveway along Blue Ridge Road Access point #7 near northwest corner of the unit and construct associated unmarked path approximately 1 mile in length with associated two- to three-log bridge along private land boundary to link up with old road access to Durgin Farm. This would provide a much needed access to the Northwest corner of the Hoffman Notch Wilderness.

•Construct a five‐car parking area at the Hoffman Notch Trailhead on the Blue Ridge Road.

Minerva town gets budget extension

MCS board tackles budget

By Phillip Sherotov

andy@denpubs.com MINERVA—The Minerva Central School Board met Thursday, March 8 to discuss their 2012-13 budget.

The board considered some ways to help the community make sense of the role of tax policies and rates in school budgeting.

Of particular concern was the new tax levy which is proposed to increase by $92,441 (2.96) percent over the current levy of $3,118,040.

The 2011-12 budget totals $4,986,001, and the proposed 2012-13 budget would be $5,040,939.

Board members said they want residents to have a clear understanding of how they arrived at the increase of 2.96 percent.

Board member Jeffery Eager suggested creating a simplified document or chart to explain some of the more technical elements in the new budget and tax levy worksheet. In addition, he pointed out that schools like Minerva that have “cut low all along and have no extravagances” find

school will also receive a gift certificate from Barnes & Noble, along with other prizes. Autumn Goerner, NCS librarian, has organized the Newcomb students to read and meet the March Reading Challenge.

Young students at ILCS will also be turning the pages. Parents as Reading Partners (PARP) also rolls into high gear during March. This year ’s theme is Reading Roundup: Lasso a Good Book. Students have been participating in the reading program for 25 plus years.

Jeff Reynolds, ILCS business teacher and Rodeo Entertainer did some fancy roping to get the students excited.

Easter service LONG LAKE — An ecumenical sunrise Easter service will be held on the Long Lake Town Beach at 7:30 a.m. on Easter Sunday, April 8.

This service is sponsored by the Calvary United

Methodist Church. Following the service, a pancake and sausage breakfast will be served at the Town Hall by the United Methodist Women.

All are invited to both events. A traditional Easter service will be held at the Calvary Methodist Church at 11 a.m.

Smith engaged JOHNSBURG — Mr. and Mrs. James Smith, of Johnsburg, announce the engagement of their daughter, Patricia Smith, to Joseph Scheffler, both of Concord, Mass.

Scheffler is the son of Mary E. Scheffler of Wilmington, N.C., formerly of Dennisport, Mass. Smith is a graduate of Johnsburg Central School, St. Lawrence University and Syracuse University. Scheffler is an account manager for a major insulation company and vocalist/harpist for the Ten Foot Polecats. A wedding date has been set for July 2012 at The Summit Lodge in Killington, Vt.

newsenterprise@denpubs.com MINERVA — At the March 15 Minerva Town Board meeting, Supervisor Sue Montgomery Corey said the Office of the State Comptroller is granting their request for an extension for submitting the town budget.

Corey noted that while the extension was for 60 days, they should have the budget finalized and ready for submission within a week or so.

During the previous Town Board meeting, Councilman Steven McNally had introduced a motion to use $37,600 from the fund balance, in addition to the payments already budgeted, to eliminate the Berkadia Water Bond Loan. A board majority passed the resolution.

However, it was noted that upon review, the previously agreed amount fell short of the amount necessary to pay off the loan by $1,150. The majority of board members felt that the additional amount was small enough

compared to the benefits of eliminating the debt to justify the added expense. Board members passed a resolution to pay the additional amount and eliminate the loan.

A discussion for providing chain saw safety training for the Highway Department staff was continued from the previous meeting.

Corey informed the board the three out of eight staff members had received such training in 2007. However, it was her recommendation that everyone should receive the training again since it is something that “should be redone periodically and that five years was a reasonable interval between training sessions.”

The board unanimously voted to arrange and schedule the training for both the Highway and Parks staff. It was noted that they would receive a discount, paying $95 per person rather than the usual $135 due to the size of the group exceeding eight people. Cornell Coop-

Long Lake community concert LONG LAKE — The Long Lake PTSO and the Friends of the Long Lake Library will present a concert titled “Drumming to the Beat of the Community” 7 p.m. Thursday, March 29 at the Long Lake Central School auditorium.

Featuring Tony Vacca, an innovative American Percussionist accompanied by Absou Sarr, a dancer from Senegal West Africa and Tantra-Zawdi, a performance poet and published author.

This dynamic trio will perform a range of songs, using a world of percussion instruments that include giant West African balafons, talking drums, a hybrid percussion/drum set, and a set of over 20 gongs. The audience will experience a lively performance of energetic African dance and spoken word poetry.

erative Extension will provide the training.

Highway Superintendent Bruce McGinn asked the board what they had decided about the Northwood Club road repair project that was brought up at the last meeting. He told them that the road was the worst in town and is also as frequently used as any other. He also said it was a prominent road because it leads to the Blue Bluffs — one of the most visited sites in the Adirondacks, where hikers can see 300 foot cliffs rising from the Hudson River.

A majority of the board passed a resolution to begin the first year of the projected three-year project, in which $52,700 from the fund balance would be combined with $50,000 of CHIPS money to grind the road. During the second and third years, the road will be paved using CHIPS money.

Discussion of the other issues raised would continue at the next board meeting, scheduled for April 5.

Indian Lake/Long Lake varsity teams named scholar athletes INDIAN LAKE — The Indian Lake-Long Lake boys and girls varsity basketball teams qualified for the New York State Public High School Athletic Association's (NYSPHSAA) Scholar Athlete Award.

To receive this award a minimum number of players must be used per team and the team must have an average of 90 percent or higher. The combined average for the girls was 95.816 and for the boys was 90.598. Each team will receive a certificate from the NYSPHSAA and each player will receive a commemorative pin. The varsity soccer teams were also recognized for the same award earlier this year. If each team throughout 2011-2012 school year qualifies for the award, the schools would receive a banner for “School of Distinction.”

INDIAN LAKE — Indian Lake Central School and Newcomb Central School are off and reading.

March 2012 marks the 10th year of the school has had a March Reading Challenge. Each year the ILCS students and many faculty members have met the challenge of reading 1,000 pages.

This year NCS has also endeavoring to meet the challenge.

Nora Harrington, ILCS High School English teacher, has been organizing students, gently nudging them and doing a lot of nurturing to make that extra effort to accomplish this task. Not only do a high percentage of the students in the high school and middle school meet the challenge, each year several students ready more than 2,000 pages.

To celebrate this accomplish, Stewart’s Shops donates a Make Your Own Sundae package for the students to devour like they do the pages.

For the 10th anniversary, there is a new reward. The Indian Lake Theater is donating a free performance of the Oscar winning movie “Hugo” for all the students who make it to the 1,000page mark.

Newcomb Central School students who read 1,000 pages will also be able to attend the free performance.

themselves in a difficult situation when they have to face decreased funding compared to schools that have regularly increased their education budgets and school taxes. While these schools can more easily make cuts, the Minerva budget has very little room for reductions, said Eager.

Superintendent Timothy Farrell agreed that they had to work hard to meet their budget goals. He said one of the major goals throughout the budget process has been to hold onto as much of the educational program as possible without having to ask taxpayers to exceed the maximum allowable tax levy. He also pointed out that tax increases in previous years had been quite low and that the latest increase needed to be seen in that context. Even as recently as 2011 and 2010, Farrell pointed out that the tax increases for those years were just 1.9 and 0.01 percent, respectively.

“We have always done our best to make sure there’s been a minimal increase,” Eager said.

The Minerva School Board will meet again to discuss the budget at 6 p.m. Thursday, March 22.
